Fred Kindel KINDEL - KINDLE - KENDALL - BROYLES - WEBB - CLARKSON - LOYD: William KINDLE b.1760 (probably in Culpeper Co VA) d.1852 Decatur Co TN. Wife not known. He joined the 2nd Rgt VA Line 1776 and was mustered out and marched back from Savannah GA, after the British sailed home defeated, in 1783. He was at Brandywine and at "Little York" when Cornwallis surrendered; National Archives file: S-2705. He moved to Greene Co TN and took up land before 1800. He had sons John KINDLE/KINDEL b.1782 and George KINDLE b.1790 perhaps in Culpeper Co VA; both married 8 Oct 1807 Greene Co TN cousins Elizabeth BROYLES and Eve (or Evi/Eva) BROYLES respectively. John raised family in Hardin Co TN. George raised family in Decatur Co TN. William moved to Perry Co then Decatur Co TN 1838 to live w/ son George. Seeking to prove/disprove that William KINDEL b. 1781 VA d.ca1865 Phillips Co AR was also his son; and seeking to find earlier generations--probably spelled KENDALL. William KINDEL m.28 Jan 1800 Greene Co TN Elizabeth WEBB b.1783 Greene Co TN d.ca1865 Phillips Co AR. This family moved to Shelby Co KY 1800-1810+/- and then on to Rutherford, Giles, Maury Cos TN; to Monroe, Yalobusha, Coahoma Cos MS; and Phillips Co AR. Children lived in Wayne Co TN adjacent to Hardin & Decatur Cos TN where John & George KINDLE lived (John and some of his children spelled it KINDEL). In Greene Co TN 1 Mar 1800 Susannah WEBB m. Thomas LOYD; John BIRD gave bond at this wedding and at wedding of Wm KINDEL/Eliz WEBB. In Shelby Co KY 21 May 1804 Mary WEBB m. John CLARKSON, Wm KINDLE gave bond and Wm WEBB gave permssion for dau Mary to wed. Working hypothesis is that Wm Webb was father of Mary, Susannah & Elizabeth. Potentially, Wm KINDEL is first-born son of Wm KINDLE, and all these people are connected with Culpeper Co VA. Do any Culpeper Co VA researchers/inquirers recognize any of these names in their own research? I NEED HELP "CRACKING THIS ROADBLOCK"; no clue to small for me to follow up on. I would surely appreciate your help, and I am glad to share my info w/ you. Fred Kindel, 111 Shelley Court, Folsom, CA 95630 email: fredric@ns.net 12 Jul 97

Jeanne B. Cox I am trying to identify Benjamin Bragg found in the Culpeper Co Deed Books as "Benjamin Bragg...of Essex Co." from 1770-1784.

He is also mentioned as a witness in Culpeper Co Deeds in 1774 between John Tackett and Jonathan Bishop in St. Mark's parish; also in a 1774 bond between Edward Bush and William Bragg. I would appreciate any info helping me to identify Benjamin Bragg and William Bragg.Thanks-Jeanne B. Cox jcox@ns.gemlink.com

Nancy Taillie I've discovered a family member that lived and died in Culpeper County, the SS Record says, Raccoon Ford and is that a town? The name is Carl Thaillie. Born in Ijzendijke, Netherlands 21 Sep 1881 and died Dec 1975 in Culpeper County. His birth record and the family name is "Taillie" and Carl's birth name is Willem Karl Taillie but he must of changed the spelling to Carl Thaillie.Carl was married to a Margaret Thaillie also living in Culpeper County. She was born 23 Oct 1890 and died Aug. 1975. The zip on the SS death notice is 22701.What is the best way to get death records from this family, not a direct decendant but a distant cousin to my husband. Will look forward to hearing from you.

Gini Carter Looking for information on: William DEATHERAGE and Susan EASTHAM. I know that they were married in Culpeper County, VA in 1709.

Jud Hofmann I am searching for information on Washburns (Washborne, Washbourne, etc.) in Accomac Co. during the 1600s and early 1700s. So far, I have uncovered the following through the Univ. of VA archives: Heriot Washborne was exporting goods from the Colonies in 1639. " Jos" Washbourne was exporting goods in 1672. John Washbourne was given a land patent on land in Accomack Co. in 1679. A man by the same name was also obtained a patent in Northhampton Co. in 1679, and yet another in 1696. "Jno" Washbourn was a clerk in the courts in Accomack Co. in 1687, certifying the will of one Simon Keeth. John Washbourne was the surveyor on Cape Charles in 1689, and it was noted that he had left the service by 1706. In 1731, a John Washburn was given a land patent in Spotsylvania County. I would like to find as much information as possible to understand the relationships between these people, and to find traces of as many Washburns as possible in VA during these years. My target is to find the father of a John Washburn, who died in Culpeper Co. in 1779. He is the supposed father of a Benjamin Washburn who was born in Culpeper Co. and died in Shelby Co., KY, and who is my ancestor. A Benjamin Washburn was given a land grant in Washington Co. in 1798. Thanks for any insight you can give.

Mike I'm working on a Reynolds line that starts with Patrick Reynolds, born about 1760, in County Meath, Ireland. By the year 1800, Patrick had fathered ten sons: William, born 1786, Patrick, born 1788, Thomas, born 1789, John born 1791, Roderick, born 1793, Cornelius born 1795, Redmond, born 1796, Jarleth, born 1798, Dennis, born 1799, and Philip born 1800. His first two wives died. Around 1800, he and his sons relocated to Culpeper, Virginia, where they stayed for a relatively short time. He married for a 3rd time, possibly in Culpeper. An old family document claims that they moved "down east" without any further explanation. Since some of the first names were unqiue I hoped to pick up something on an old census for Virginia or the surrounding states without success. I don't know where they moved to. Really would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks,

Mary Margaret "Molly" Duggins I am looking for any records of my great-great-great grandfather William Thomas Duggins, whom I believe to be buried in either Louis or Culpepper County.

Cordelia M Sardoch I was wondering if you could find any info in your "Culpeper Co, 18th Century Perspective" or "Historic Culpeper" on a couple of my ancestors. The first is Henry FORD (1751-1855)He apparently lived most of his life in Culpeper Co. (There is a family tradition that the name was changed somewhere along the way and may have been SANFORD at one time.) He had a son, Shelton FORD (b.1805 in Culpeper) who married Delilah SHACKELFORD (or SHACKLEFORD (b. 1824 in Culpeper) Shelton had 11 kids and my g-g-grandfather was appearantly the second born. His name was:Jackson FORD (1834-1924).I doubt that Delilah was Jackson's mother as she was only 10 years old when he was born. Shelton must have had a wife before Delilah.I truly appreciate any info that you might find in your reference books. Thank you so much, Cordelia (Dee) Sardoch

Wendy White I am researching the GIBSON family, a large Quaker family that lived in the Culpeper, Loudoun, Fauquier, Clarke, and Frederick counties area. I am especially looking for the parents of three sisters: Rosetta GIBSON who married Alfred JONES; Rosella GIBSON who married Manley Washington RUSK; Rosanna GIBSON who married John STATES. Their father had died by 1830, as Rosella's guardian was listed as her brother-in-law, Alfred JONES at her marriage to Manley RUSK in 1830. It is possible that they are related to the family of Alpheus GIBSON, son of Moses GIBSON and Betsy Withers WINN. Each of these sisters had daughters named Alcinda, the same name as Alpheus GIBSON'S sister. I would also like to know why each of their names started with "Rose". Any info on this family would be appreciated.

I think the possibility exists that he might have been killed in the battle of Guilford Courthouse.

His father Henry ba1731 who married Mariah Woods Stepp lived in Culpeper Co., but his son William Jorden ( jourdan ) was born in Rabun Co. Ga. in 1803. I don't have any info on siblings for Humphrey, or if he had a middle name.

If you know of or can find any information, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks a lot.

Here is what I do know: William Holloway came to Culpepper Co., VA with his wife (whose name I do not know), a son John, a son George, a daughter Clarissa and her husband Samuel Hill. The entire family moved on the Caroline Co. by 1787. Do you have any records for this family in Culpepper prior to 1787? Thanks in advance.

Calvin Pittman hello, i am currently researching my family tree. this will lead me to Virgina and the name of Peter Kinsey of Culpepper County, Virgina. If you can help me in any way, please contact me by email and i will gladly return you letter. Thanks,

kathy oathout We are currently researching my husband's family and our question concerns Michael Coons, born in Virginia around 1735. Is it possible that his father is Joseph Coones, who came to Culpepper in 1714 from Germany to mine coal? We do know that Michael had a land survey in Dumore (Shenandoah County) Co. in July 1774. Also, is it possible that Michael's brother was the Baptist Minister John Koontz who also lived in Shenandoah County. Michael's wife's name was Rebecca, but we don't have a surname. They had 10 children, 9 of whom were born in VA. They apparently moved to Tennesse in 1783. Any help you can give us would be appreciated.

Nancy Grogan Dear researcher, I know that the Slaughter Family of Culpeper Co. VA has been researched to death, but a copy of a Journal written shortly after the Civil War has recently come to light that says that my ancestor John Slaughter b 1735 New Kent Co. VA m Frances Brothers at St Peters Parish, New Kent , moved to Cumberland Co. VA then died 1798 in Greene Co. GA, is the son of William Slaughter ( who raised a large family, of which he only knew of John) and the grandson of Robert Slaughter, who came from the Atlantic Coast to Culpeper Co.( formerly Orange Co.) with his brothers Thomas and Francis. One brother went on to Kentucky, but the branch from which we descend remained in VA until after the Rev. War.
